University to hear a lecture by John
Cinrdi, noted poot and critic.
Mr. Ciardi , Professor of English

Men Residents' Dances
The first of the dances sponsored

A "dress-up" dance , sponsored by
the Men Residents' Council was
held in the Husky Lounge Saturday
evening from 8:30 to 11 p.m. Music
for this event was provided by a
group of musicians from various
college campuses. Due to the limited space in the lower section of
the lounge, couples took advantage
of the upper deck area for dancing.
This was the first time the area had
been used for this purpose and it
is possible that permission may be
secured to use it again in the futur e.
West Chester Parade
Bloomsburg's Main Street was
filled with music and colorful floats
on Saturday, November 3. The lineup for the paraders was at noon ,

NOTES FROM THE
DEAN'S DESK
Entrance Examinations
The qualifying entrance examinations for 1958-59 began on Saturd ay, October 26 and were continued
Saturday, November 16. It was the
first time that the exams were
given at such an early date , but it
was necessary to do so because of
the admission pressure. The examinations for the 1957-58 school year
did not begin until December but
the number of applications for this
year, far exceed the number received last year at this date. Upon
investigation , it was determined
th a t the schools i n th e Phil ad elphi a
area are supplying the largest number of applicants.
Secondary Enrollment
A survey of the Secondary enrollment in the Freshman Class indicates that for the first time in
several years, a considerable number of students are enrolled as
English maj ors.
The graduating class of 1957 had
only four English maj ors, while the
presen t Freshman class will have
eighteen.
The enrollment in the Science
field has dropped from last year's
high of 62 to 27.
The number of mathematics major s in this year's Freshman class
equal the number of students who
chose that area last year.
Special Education
'
At the present time, there are 54
students enrolled in Special Education , 46 in Speech Correction, and 4
in both fields—a total of 104 students. Of this number, 35 students
are Freshmen—-19 enrolled in Special Education and 16 in Speech
Correction.
There will be only 15 graduates in
this field in the class of 1958. Dean
Hock , well-satisfigd . with the expanding enrollment said , "The increase is a heartening thing for future years."
Summer Statistics
From a 5-year survey of the Summer School enrollment, it was
learned that 183 teachers-in-servlce
attended the 1957 Summer Session.
This was the largest attendance in
5 years. The number of currently
enrolled students attending that
session totaled 320, indicating the
fact that students taking an niccel(Continued on page 3)

College Council Report
A regular meeting of College Council was held on Monday, November 11. Here are some of the results of that meeting.
Student Tribunal Report
The committee on a judiciary tribunal had nothing new to report
at the present time, but the chairman asked Council members to submit suggestions in writing to the committee.
hi his reply to the minutes, President Andruss stated that the steps
being taken in the consideration of a judiciary tribunal are not very
detailed and that if any action is to be taken it should be matured so it
may be announced for the second semester of the college year.
Juke Box for the Lounge
Luther Natter reported pn the bids received for the installation of a
juke box in the Husk y Lounge.
Council members made the following suggestions and comments :
1. That the profits from the machine be used for scholarshi ps, (or)
that they be placed in a special fund , a committee to decide how they
could best be used, (or) that they be included in the general profits of
the Husky Lounge since the juke box would be located in that area.
(President Andruss favors the last idea.)
2. That the juke box and a television set in the same area would
interfere with the enjoyment of each — the T.V. set would need to be
re-located. The Day Women's and Day Men's lounges and the Waller
Hall Lobby were suggested for this purpose , but none is satisfactory .
The Social and Recreation Committee has been directed to draw up
a plan for the location of the television set, the distribution of the
profits, the operation of the juke box, and all other problems that exist
concerning the installation of the machine5 to be submitted to Council
for anDroval.
Smoking in Waller Hall Lobby

Some members of Council suggested that smoking should be permitted in the Waller lobby for the convenience of those students using
this area for study. Others pointed out that the lobby is mainly a reception place for parents and guests ; it should , therefore, be free of
cigarette butts , ashes, and smoke. Also, Waller Hall is an old building,
and smoking in the lobby might prove to be a fire hazard.
It should be noted that , upon the request of the Dean of Women,
smoking in the lobby of the College Commons has been authorized on
a trial basis for one month. If the area is properl y used , this privilege
will be continued.
West Chester Weekend
The College Council and President Andruss agreed that the football team , the students, the faculty, and the college community are
to be commended for their spirit in all the activities during the West
Chester Weekend.

Memoirs of
Mae Bush

The Old Philosopher

Dear Diary—
I think the very best place in all
this world to write my memoirs is
in a smoky, darkish little room at
a place I Know. Someday I'll publisn them and make tons of money
and live happily ever alter. Maybe,
but I doubt it. Sitting here in this
mysterious atmposhere I see
( using my peripheral vision, ot
course) dashing, gay, debonair,
Norman fowler dancing madly
across the dance floor with one oi
his numerous lady loves. Ah, to be
young again !
And I was j ust thinking—there
are so many, many things I wonder about—x 'rinstance I wonder!
—Why John Valania doesn't
ever mention his red smoking jacket that Gary Lynch admires so
much?
To change the subj ect—I heard
that Don Hemler was at Jack Merman 's apartment and someone
knocked at the door. Don answer ed
and said "Jack, there's a woman
peddler at the door. " Jack replied,
"Get rid of him—we've got plenty!"
I never knew there were so many
rules and regulations in this school.
The Co-Pilot reads like a law book.
But after all, even my mother
thinks kissing a boy goodnight is a
norm al, healthy indoor sport: And 1
never did see any rule pertaining
to borrowing j ars of musiard lroin
the Snack Bar. Wonder why Aide
wanted a whole j ar of mustard ?
I got a letter from my daddy and
he was telling me all about his college courses. He claims college was
harder in his day. Ha! He only had
classes from six a.m. to six-thirty
p.m. with a while ten minutes for
lunch. And his courses—nothing !
Take his sophomore year for example—his courses were Sanskrit IV,
Comparative Theology, Econ VII ,
Colloquial Japanese, and Animal
Husbandry. Really, Sharpening

How 'bout it kiddies ?

Hello there fellow pea-pickers. You say you 're out of a j ob because
the fall of the year is here. Well, don't feel bad — some of your friends
are out of school — a new epidemic has hit BSTC, "suspenion fever."
And the only course you 're passing this semester is Room Evaluation I
with a great, big, fat A. Well, when you go for your profile, you'll probably be advised to transfer to Mansfield and major in Home Economics.
You say that Long Porch has superseded Hess' and College^ Commons
as the biggest checkers of cards in Bloomsburg. And the price of sneakers has gone up in the local stores because the female population must
wear them when they go out in order to beat the stop watch from Long
Porch to Fourth Floor Waller Hall — why not a female track team
this semester, Mr. Shelly ?
You say you're one of those who has been on the "stay-here-on-weekends-kick" but you 're really disappointed because of current policies
which will drive the kids home. And you 're afraid such successful weekends as West Chester week-end might well have ended there because
of the restrictions and j uvenile treatment of people who are supposed to
be adults. And you think BSTC ought to "suspend" all men and combine

Inside the
Waller Walls

Sporting striped shirts, serial
numbers, and chains, the "inmates "
of t he "Wallflower Hall Penitentiary " filed into the Husky Lounge
on Wednesday, November 6, to attend the first dorm party of the
year. These Waller Hall girls enjoy ed an hour of merrymaking from
9:30 to 10:30 p.m. with free goodies
and special entertainment by various groups from "inside the walls".
Husky Lounge opened wide its
gates and the girls passed through
leaving fingerprints — for future
reference — behind them. As these
party-goers took their seats, the
Warden, Lois Myers, announced the
first selection on the evening 's
schedule. This was a "Ch ai n Gang
f rom Third Floor " armed with ukeleles and vocal cords. The eight
members of this gang, Janice Jones,
Lorry Ycager, Peggy Dragna , Fil
Cro co mo , Sa lly Sayles, Phyllis Henninger, Jean Matchulat , and Carol
Greene, entertained with their versions of "Marianne " and "SilhounHoo "

Following several important announcements read by the institution 's secretary, Carol Yost, two
young ladies sang "You Can't Get
A Man With A Gun ". This guitar
and vocal selection was presented
by Susie Kierstead and Bev Tuckwood, Peggy Davies and Sandy
Mourey, dressed in matron uniforms, drew many laughs from the
audience with their series of jokes.
Skill with a baton was demonstrated by Susie Woods, outfitted in a
sriped nightshirt and nightcap, as
she twirled to "Wake Up Little
Susie. "
Next on the list was a "Person
To Person" interview by reporter ,
Emma Kovalavich , who talked with
Judy Muir , Wendy Rundell , Jo
Trettel , and Patsy Ksanznak. To
conclude the evening's program,
Doris Witmer sang a very appropriate song "Fool's Rush In " accompanied by Marie Suwalski.
Throughout the evening, cameras
flashed as members of the "Prison
Press" made permanent records of
the evening 's events.
The whistle was blown and the
"Inmates" of the "Wallflower Hall
Penitentiary " went back to their
cells with vivid memories of the
party which had been arranged for
them by Barb Hockenberry and her
committee, which included: Carol
Yost, Genie Beers, Val Marcavage,
Lorna Yurgls, De Panzltta , Shirley
Metz , and Sandy Goodhart.

Lock Haven and Shippensburg will share the 1957 State Teachers
College Conference championship. Both teams finished an undefeated
season with 11-0 and 9-0-1 respectively.
The situation prior to this week-end of play found Shippensburg State
Teachers as the undisputed leader of the Pennsylvania State Teachers
Colleges Football Conference with a 250 rating, 13 points better than
the second place Bald Eagles from Lock Haven. However, the Red
Raiders had to await the results of this past week end of final games
before they would know whether or not they would be declared the lone
STC champions or whether they would act as co-champions with Lock
Haven. In order for a tie to be brought about the Bald Eagles had to
defeat Mansfield STC and Indiana STC had to down Clarion STC, and
East Stroudsburg STC had to defeat or tie the Golden Avalanche from
{S.U.IZ IA/WJI O J. V-.

Lock Haven was not to be denied the chance to have the honor of
being co-champs with Shippensburg as they edged the scrappy MountaineersHfrom Mansfield STC 13-0. Elsewhere in the conference things
went the way the Bald Eagles wanted it to by having Indiana State
Teachers College defeat the die-hard gridironers from Clarion STC,
14-7. East Stroudsburg foiled Lock Haven's chances of becoming the
sole owner of the championship by tying Kutztown 14-14. A Kutztown
win over East Stroudsburg would have given Shippensburg the title,
according to computations using the Saylor system of ratings used by
the conference. So hats off to the Red Raiders and Bald Eagles for their
very successful football seasons.
Of the 51 colleges playing football in Pennsylvania, West Chester
and Lock Haven finished as the only undefeated and untied teams in
the entire Commonwealth. Recently, Lock Haven had bumped Lycoming from the undefeated ranks and downed Mansfield to make it 11 in
a row for the Eagles. West Chester continued its winning ways by
mauling the Vulcans from California State Teachers College last Friday night by a 52-0 count, for their 13th straight. West Chester is the
defending STC champion but could not win the title again because it
was unable to garner enough rating points. Shippensburg completed an
undefeated season but was held to a 6-6 tie by New Haven State
Teachers College in the season's opener. In the only other game played
by a confer ence team , Slippery Rock State Teachers College gained
some satisfaction from their poor season by defeating the Bears from
West Liberty STC, 12-0, to close out their season.

The Harriers of Cheyney State Teachers College won their 9th crosscountry meet against two defeats as they downed Maryland State College 19-40 to close out their successful season. George Dintman, Lock
Haven's brilliant halfback, clinched the lead as the State's leading
scorer by tallying two touchdowns against the Mountaineers last week
end.

Huskies Ready
To Open Season

A decision by the Pennsylvania
State Teachers Athletic Conference
allows basketball practice to begin
October 15 on Teachers College
campuses instead of November 1, as
was formerly the rule here at
BSTC. Coach Harold Shelly has
been putting the crafty Centennial
Cagers through their paces since
October 20 in preparation for the
coming court season.
When the opening game with
Kutztown rolls around on December 4, the Husky hoopsters should
be ready to take to the court with
what promises to be one of the best
teams that Bloomsburg has seen in
recent years. The following is the
57-58 basketball schedule.

Now that the football season has
come to a close, athletic interests
at Bloomsburg have centered in
Centennial Gym where Coach Shelly's basketball squad has been
working out in preparation for their
first game with Kutztown State
Teachers College.
Coach Shelly has good material
to work with this year as several
lettermen are returning., The starting line-up should consist of veterans Gustave, Shaeffer , Swisher,
Snyder and Boyle. Other players
returning who saw limited action
last year are Covington, Janetka,
Mascioli and Francis. Ray Burger,
returning after ia year's absence
and freshmen "Flip" Houser and
Norm Shutovich will round out the
varsitv.
Kutztown, as well as Bloomsburg,
will sport a well-seasoned team.
Bishop, a sophomore, will be;returning at center, and Kistler," who
holds a conference scoring record,
will start in one of the forward
positions with the experienced
Newhart returning at one of the
guard slots.
Bloomsburg managed to defeat
the Kutztown squad in Centennial
Gym last year, but found the going
a little rougher on their opponent's
home court. This season Kutztown
plays host to Bloomsburg in our
opening game and their small court
will be one of the main obstacles
that will have to be overcome.
Kutztown has a big team and the
small gym will prove to be very
much in their favor.
This game should prove to be very
influential in determining the future success of the Bloomsburg
squad. The general opinion is that
this is going to be one of the toughest games of the year. If we manage to come out on top in this one,
the consensus is that we could go
all the way.
